Drastic performance changes in certain pipe usage patterns. This was
probably too early in the 2.6 series to count, though.

There might be some subtle changes in the netfilter/routing
interaction which break user configurations, but this still being
tracked down (and maybe the any behavior is fine because it's
unspecified; hard to tell).
